What is FP7UK?
It is a group of National Contact Points (NCPs) funded by the
Technology Strategy Board to provide advice and assistance
to UK participants within specific areas of Framework
Programme 7 (FP7).
•Includes PPP support
•All member states have NCPs

Business Development Drivers
Funding activities must be seen as a
Business Development Tool.
•
•
•
•
Engagement in activities that are value added –
strategically and operationally if possible.
Assistance in helping to develop IP, products and
people.
Partnering with strategic customers and end-users
Forming Supply Chain alliances
Funding is competitive.
So – The act of applying needs to be value added!

What NMP is about – Industrial Technologies
NOT JUST NANO!!
Improving industry competitiveness by
developing, integrating and implementing
high value-added technologies and
processes:
•
Relevant to many sectors
•

UK in the NMP calls
•
UK Industrial participation is at the same level as
academia
•
More successful UK SMEs so far than in all of FP6.
•
UK grants in NMP call alone will be equivalent to that from
a full UK CR&D call.

How NMP Proposals are evaluated:
Large, Small and SME projects are Collaborative Projects
-organisations from at least 3 countries
They (usually) have a 2-stage procedure
– Stage 1 is a 10-page summary proposal for a quick yes/no
Projects are marked on Technical Excellence, Impact and
Project Management (stage 2 only)

NMP - Example of Collaborative Projects
•
Small or medium-scale focused research projects
• <4m€ Funding (Typically €2-3m, ~6-10 organisations)
• Generally research focused with some end markets & applications
•
Large scale integrating collaborative projects,
• >4m€ Funding (typically €6-8m, ~12-20 organisations)
• Still pre-competitive research, but tying closer into end markets and
applications.
• Higher dissemination & training element
•
SME collaborative projects
• Aimed at making SMEs research and knowledge-driven
• >35% SME participation (no prescribed No. of participants)
• SME drive (not necessarily the coordinator)

What are the PPPs?
•
•
•
Public Private Partnerships
Re-focused FP7 money on three areas identified in the
2008 European Economic Recovery Package:
•
•
Factories of the Future (€600m from Commission)
Green Cars (€600m)
•
Energy Efficient Buildings (€500m)
They are NOT Joint Technology Initiatives (JTIs)
Technology Strategy Board
Driving Innovation
European Framework Programme for Business
FP7UK
How are the PPPs to be implemented?
•
Budgets come from the different thematic area budgets
• e.g. ‘Factories’ is 1/2 NMP, 1/2 ICT
•
This year Calls will be coordinated calls between the
different themes, following normal FP7 rules.
•
After that – they may start to look more ‘JTI-like’ with more
direct involvement of the European Technology Platforms.
